There was this man that they think use to live in the neighborhood, but they were not quite sure. Everyone was leery of this man, and they called him The Spector for he only came out in the late evenings or late at night and just walk up and down the street. The neighbors tried to meet him, but he always just turned and walked away. They wondered what he was always looking for every night. They set up shifts to see if they could find out, but it seems the Spector kind of suspected something from them and stopped.

One Morning
One morning while out on the creek I was paddling along. Just enjoying the quiet of the morning. Then all of the sudden there was this horrible honking that would not stop. Here I am in the middle of creek with nobody around for miles. I looked around, but I didn't see any geese around. The road was far away too. I kept paddling and at the same time was looking for what could have made that honking noise. I have heard that there could be Herons located around this creek and it could have been them. I think they make a honking noise.

Our Song
Evening has given way to night. Gently, I settle next to you on the comfortable, old love seat and reach for your hand. You snatch it away, again. It cuts me to the quick, but I hide the pain, understanding that the reaction is but part of your demented state. Since the accident, your presence here in our cozy home has been clouded by a haze I can't see. Nevertheless, I feel the frigidity of your expressions and it serves as an excruciating reminder of the immeasurable distance between us.

Writing About Writing: The Rainbow Trap
The good thing about living in modern times is that LGBTQ representation in media is increasing. Not just in niche and Independant media, either, but also in mainstream media. Books, movies, TV shows, comics... they're finally catching on that LGBTQ+ people form a significant part of their audience, and deserve to see themselves on screen and in fiction, not just as victims in documentaries and true crime shows.

Interesting drabble....a bit reminiscent of Boo Radley. Though no one actually saw him much they certainly speculated about him a great deal.
Spector has a real mystery about him.
